Range: from touch to close (or better) [pathfinder]

[Raezeman]

Greetings:

i'm searching for a way to increase the range of touch spells. I know the metamagic spell 'reach spell' does this, but i am looking for a way that doesn't increase the spell level, through magic item of something. Is there such something?
I know there are metamagic rod, but is there a rod of reach spell?

Yes. (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/rods/metamagic-rods/metamagic-reach)

I haven't done a deep dive to make sure, but I think there is a metamagic rod for every metamagic feat in PF.

Two possible alternatives to a reach MM rod are to get a familiar to deliver the spells for you, or to get really long arms/other appendages with which to deliver the spells.

There's also spectral hand (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/s/spectral-hand), and witches/hex magi can use their hair. Gravewalker witches can use their voodoo poppet, though this makes spellcasting take a long time.

If it's for allies, you can use the witches "scar" ability to boost the range of any hex up to a mile, you could also grab the "spell hex" feat to make a hex of a first level spell; which also boosts the DC to your hex DC.

You could also scar an enemy and run away, but touching people and running off is probably not the goal here. What exactly are you after?

To make some stuff clear: my character will be a sorcerer with the undead bloodline, and the touch spells will be more aimed at the enemies. The reason for my question is that due to the low bab of the sorcerer combined with his low strength, making touch attacks is not that accurate. However, thanks to his not so bad dexterity, ranged touch is a lot more viable.

Since my sorcerer has no familiar, that is no option. Increasing his reach still has the same problems.

Spectral hand is interesting yes, but it takes up a spell known and having to cast it for a fight takes time.

The reach rod, now THAT is what Noxius is talking about! Is that source, the link you sent me, trustworthy? Wouldn't want to ask for a homebrew item to my dm...

There isn't one for Still Spell, probably because of the irony of swinging a rod around to replace swinging your arms around. :smalltongue:

When in doubt d20PFSRD almost always lists a source at the bottom. In this case the source is "Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Ultimate Equipment (OGL) ". So it's not homebrew or third party.
